22. Ranjit hits Siddartha

CHAPTER 22

Ranjit hits Siddartha

Ranjit went to the shooting academy. On seeing him enter, security saluted.

Getting up, Receptionist said, “Good evening, sir.”

Ranjit smiled and said, “Good evening. Is Rana in?”

Receptionist smiled and shook her head. “No sir. He just went out.”

Ranjit felt a bit disappointed. “What about my daughter, Amrita? Has she come for practice?”

Receptionist said, “Yes sir. She is having practicles in the ground.”

Ranjit went to the shooting ground and looked around. He saw many trainers and students. Ranjit tried to see whether Amrita was among the students. The incident which had taken place was still in his mind. He had already started feeling sad for what had happened.

“Che! I should not have hit that boy so much for such a small incident. Since childhood, I am so rash. I must control myself.”

Ranjit walked around the ground looking at the students.  

“Rana has kept such good coach. They are giving such good training to the students. I wonder where Amrita is.”

Suddenly far away in the last point, Ranjit saw his daughter in a very sexy position with Siddartha. He was shocked. Then he looked at another trainer with his lady student. Ranjit compared their position to the position in which Siddartha was with his student. Siddartha had put his hand on her hand and was holding the rifle with her. She was fully leaning on his chest with closed eyes in dreams.

Siddartha was saying something in her ear. They were fully in a romantic position forgetting their bodies. Ranjit’s body started burning with anger. He stood close to Siddartha and Amrita but they did not notice him.

Angrily, Ranjit thought, “These bastards trap the students in the name of training. She is to get married soon. Bastard.” 

Angrily Ranjit approached Siddartha and patted him on the back. Both became alert. Seeing her father, Amrita felt scared and separated.

Seriously, Ranjit asked, “What is this? Which teaching position is this?”

Turning to look at Ranjit, coolly, Siddartha said, “Shooting position, sir. Your daughter is afraid to press the trigger by herself. That is why.”

Amrita moved a bit away. She was feeling guilty and afraid. She knew how angry her father can become.

Angrily, Ranjit said, “Don’t play games with me. See there.”

Pointing to the other trainers, Ranjit said, “Look at their method of teaching and look at yours. You are not training her but trapping her because she is a beautiful girl.”

Siddartha became a bit serious and said, “Excuse me, sir. You have mistaken me. I have to train the students depending on their moods.”

Shocked, pointing to Siddartha’s face seriously, Ranjit said, “You are not only making a mistake but also playing a drama. I will make your teeth fall with a single punch.”

Coolly, Siddartha said, “Excuse me sir. You are crossing the border without understanding the situation.”

Angrily, Ranjit asked, “You bastard. What did you say?”

He slapped Siddartha on his cheek. Siddartha was shocked. Amrita shivered with fear and shock.

Standing in between her father and Siddartha, Amrita said, “Siddartha did not make any mistake.”

Looking at his daughter, pointing to her seriously, Ranjit said, “You don’t come in the middle.”

Siddartha looked at Amrita coolly. He said angrily and seriously, “You have lifted a hand on me. Imagine how it will be if I hit back.”

Seriously, Ranjit said, “As if you have the courage to hit me back. Hit me. Let us see.”

Pushing Siddartha’s chest, Ranjit said, “Hit me. Hit me.”

He pushed Siddartha. Siddartha moved a bit back. Ranjit caught hold of his shirt. Siddartha stared at Ranjit.

Ranjit said, “What you are doing is loapher’s job. Why are you staring at me?”

He pushed Siddartha again. People gathered around to see the commotion. Again Ranjit hit Siddartha. He fell down. Ranjit kicked the fallen Siddartha.

Putting his leg on Siddartha, pointing to him and bending down,                                   Ranjit said, “Champion it seems. Champion. And then coach it seems. You are a coach who traps girls.”

Siddartha pushed Ranjit’s leg away and got up.

Putting his collar up proudly, pointing a finger at Ranjit, Siddartha said angrily, “Mr. Commando, do you know why I did not hit you back?”

Touching commando dress, Siddartha said, “I value that dress you are wearing.”

Pointing to Amrita, Siddartha said, “And also for your daughter’s friendship, I am leaving you alone.”

Angrily pointing to him, Ranjit said seriously, “How dare you even think of any relationship with my daughter? What is your level as compared to ours?”

Angrily, Siddartha said, “You are becoming task force chief commando in your retiring stage. You have come to this stage crossing all smaller stages. Remember that.”

Amrita was shocked. Ranjit was very angry.

Turning his punch in front of Ranjit seriously, Siddartha said, “You hit me. For that if I do not hit you back some day, my name is not Siddartha.”

All were watching Siddartha. Ranjit takes his daughter’s hand angrily and goes off pulling her behind him.

Siddartha stands watching him angrily.
